The kingtech 180 consumes 19oz a minute at full throttle. With the included tank, thats five minutes of flight time. I know full throttle won't be used for the whole flight, but still too tight for my comfort. If installing a smaller turbine, I'm sure the 100oz tank will suffice. Dreamworks sells a 34oz header tank that will fit perfectly under the main tank. There is room to put a slightly larger tank, but this is the largest one I could find that would fit. This bumps it up to seven minutes, I am looking for a good 6-7 minute flight with time to go around once. The UAT included is different than I'm used to, but I know the Europeans use a similar style with no problems. My tomahawk Viper came with a very similar UAT. This tank system is going to make plumbing a breeze and a very clean install.

It will be cool to see if someone makes a custom fitted tank that fits.
